BA-10
Kraju	Radzieckiego
Typu	Samochód pancerny
Produkowane	1938-1941
Zbudowany	3311

Tthe BA-10 Broneawtomobil 10 (ros. Broneavtomobil 10) – samochód pancerny opracowany w Związku Radzieckim w 1938 roku i produkowany do 1941 roku. Był to najczęściej produkowany radziecki ciężki samochód pancerny sprzed 1941 roku – 3311 zbudowano w trzech wersjach. Były to BA-10, BA-10M (ulepszona wersja z nowym radiem) i BA-10ZhD (przystosowana do podwójnego użytku kolejowo-drogowego). Podstawowa konstrukcja BA-10 została opracowana z ciężkich samochodów pancernych BA-3 i BA-6. Miał ulepszone podwozie GAZ-AAA i ulepszony pancerz (do 15 mm z przodu i wieży). Planowano, że BA-10 zostanie zastąpiony w 1941 roku przez BA-11 z silnikiem wysokoprężnym i bardziej wyrafinowaną konstrukcją opancerzenia, ale wybuch wojny uniemożliwił produkcję BA-11. BA-10 był w służbie Armii Czerwonej do 1945 roku. Znaczna liczba przechwyconych BA-10 była używana przez Finlandię (co najmniej 24), Niemcy i inne państwa Osi w Europie.

The Evolution of the Heavy Armored Car

Tthe BA-10 was the most produced Soviet heavy armored car of the pre-WWII era. Developed in 1938 at the Izhorsky Plant, it was an improvement over the earlier BA-3 and BA-6 models. By mounting the turret and 45mm gun of a T-26 Lub BT-5 tank onto a reinforced 6×4 GAZ-AAA truck chassis, the Soviets created a vehicle that possessed the firepower of a light tank but with the operational mobility of a wheeled vehicle. It was the backbone of Soviet motorized units during the invasion of Poland, the Winter War, and the early stages of Operation Barbarossa.

Design Features and Off-Road Solutions

The “Overall” Tracks: To compensate for poor off-road performance on soft ground, the BA-10 carried a pair of “Overall” auxiliary tracks stowed over the rear fenders. These could be fitted over the dual rear wheels in about 10 minutes, effectively turning the vehicle into a temporary half-track.
Step-Down Reduction Gear: The BA-10 utilized a specialized 4-speed transmission with a reduction gear, allowing it to crawl through difficult terrain that would stall a standard truck.
Sloped Armor: Unlike earlier boxy designs, the BA-10 featured significantly sloped armor plates on the front and sides, which improved the effective thickness and helped deflect small-arms fire and shell splinters.
Spare Wheels as Rollers: The two spare wheels were mounted on the sides of the hull in a way that allowed them to rotate freely. This helped prevent the vehicle from “high-centering” or bottoming out when crossing trenches or steep crests.

Historia operacyjna

Khalkhin Gol (1939): The BA-10 proved highly effective against Japanese armor. Its 45mm gun could easily penetrate Japanese Type 95 light tanks at ranges where the Japanese guns could not retaliate.
The 1941 Catastrophe: Thousands were lost during the German invasion. While its gun remained lethal, its thin armor and high silhouette made it a “glass cannon.” It was easily destroyed by German 3.7cm PaK 36 anti-tank guns.
German Use (Beutepanzer): The Wehrmacht captured hundreds of BA-10s, redesignating them as the Pz.Sp.Wg. 203(r). They were widely used for anti-partisan duties in the rear areas and by the Waffen-SS.
Final Years: By 1942, production shifted toward the smaller, 4×4 BA-64. The surviving BA-10s were relegated to second-line units, training, or had their turrets removed to serve as armored personnel carriers or tractors.
